lakewood vs. upr control arms

UNFStang · September 19th, 2007, 01:06 AM

which is a better set, the UPR upper and lower control arms, which are tubular, or the lakewood ones at rpmoutlet, which are square tubed. the lakewood pieces are the only ones i have seen that are square steel tubing.

Well I hear mixed opinions on UPR's products, and I haven't heard a whole lot on Lakewood. I have heard alot of good about Steeda's Control Arms though, and if your interested AmericanMuscle carry's them, plus you get the discount & free shipping. No matter what you buy though, I would stay away from RPMoutlet, too many horror stories from people.

my friend, 03_darkside_gt, just bought his pypes o/r x-pipe from there. it came really quick, like 3-4 days, he put it on this past weekend and it works great. i didn't know that rpm wasn't any good...

Just ask around on here, or do a search for RPM outlet on here. Several guys on here, Stangnet, and MustangForums have had nothing but trouble/ problems with them.

I don't know what you trying to do, but the 03 Cobra lower conrtol arms for the front give the car a stance and are very reasonably priced. I would go to Stangsuspinsion or MMR for the parts if I were replacing the rear conrtol arms. Also you'll have to decide on the type racing your going to do. Personally I'm not to impressed with Steeda, I think they higher than a cat's ass price wise
